Sobre IBD

ROBERT HUDDLESTON, a teenage combat pilot in World War II, now approaches his 100th birthday in 2024. This volume is a collection of his play and sketches. Themes involve cultural icons-some beloved and some despised-that have affected Bob as he came of age during the Second World War, as he served in various US military and federal government positions, and upon retirement to a life of writing. His tales capture the spirit and the chicanery of twentieth-century American boom times and the dawn of a new century.
